Yo Gotti named Mario Mims at birth in Memphis, Tennessee is a rapper
who has earned his spot in the genre since 1996. Since then Gotti has
released several notable songs like "DM" off the album Art of Hustle but here are some of the best lyrics and
verses of Yo Gotti. Keep in mind that Yo Gotti started off as an
independent artist. While most of his songs may not have made the
national charts such as Billboard, Gotti has a loyal fan base.
Therefore, this is how this list was compiled.
From the album Back 2 da Basics, the single, “That's What's Up (Intro)”,
proved to be a street anthem to all his fans. In this song he gets back
to the basics of what started him in the game of drugs and rapping.
This album debuted at Number 6 on the Billboard’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop
Albums.
Verse: “A ni**a raided yo spot, confiscated yo block N he didn't get shot, you a h*e ni**a”
The 2013 song off the I Am album, “I Know” ft. Rich Homie Quan,
gave Rich Homie Quan his national appearance in the rap genre. The song
did not make Billboard charts but his fans recognized this as one of
the best songs off the album. This single was made to acknowledge some
people around you may pretend to be friends. Beware and pay attention
and you will find out who they really are.
Hook: “I know, I know, I know I know, I know, I
know. You ain’t that ni**a you say you is. Just know that I know, I
know, I know. Them streets, they fuck with me strong. And them bitches
gon’ fuck just because money long. You know that I know, I know, I know.
Well you know that I know it, I know it, I know”
Verse: “You a fuck ni**a and it ain’t a secret. I’m
so official they can referee it. Black gun, white work, I got jungle
fever, 28 on the scale, all I drop is ether. Get money, break bread,
gotta feed your people. Every day like thanksgiving, everybody eating”
"Cold Blood"(feat. J. Cole & Canei Finch) is another single released off the I Am
album in 2013. The album reached No. 2 on Billboard’s Top
R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. This song is about the way the world is toward
someone who has been impoverished and the things one has to go through
to survive.
Hook: “Started from the ground, building to the sky
now. Watch it fall down, but how you gon’ survive now? Yeah, it’s cold
blood in a ni**a. The streets left no love in a ni**a”
Verse: “Lights off, no candles, roaches all around
the kitchen. Ni**a hungry, mom embarrassed, so she don't want us to
mention it. Grandma wanna help but mama ego kickin' in. She a hustla,
she don't need no help raisin' her kids. Bills came, got evicted, stayed
strong, square business. She ain't Neva shown weakness, real shit. That
created the hunger, and that made the monster. Got the game from our
mama. That's some ill shit!”
“Standing In the Kitchen” was one of the singles released on Cocaine Musik 3
Mixtape in 2009. It reached to the number 6 on the Billboard’s Top
R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. Yo Gotti, has never been shy about his previous
life before being a rapper. This single describes how to make money
selling drugs, the repercussions, and the paranoia.
Chorus: “I’m just standing in the kitchen. Over the
stove just water whippin’. Mixin’ soda with the yola. Bet I can show ya
how to get some movin'”
Verse: "Baking soda beaken cup stretch it out whip
it up 2 to 4, 4 to 8 I can make it double up glock 40 hush ‘em up If a
ni**a rushin’ up AK-47 banana clip bitch I'll hush ‘em up"
On the Cocaine Musik 7 Mixtape, Yo Gotti teamed up with the rapper Jakakiss for the single
“Ain’t no turning around” feat. Jadakiss
This song reveals the consequences of selling drugs. It is meant as a
warning that when you make the choice for this lifestyle, you must
accept the rules and what will eventually happen to you.
Chorus: “Once you put your hand on that pot. Ain't
no turning around, ain't no turning around. Once you bust your first
glock. Ain't no turning around, ain't no turning around. Once you jump
off that porch. Ain't no turning around, ain't no turning around. These
streets hot as a torch. Ain't no turning around, ain't no turning
around.”
Verse: “Before you put your hand in it. You got to
be the man in it. You got to understand it, got to know the rules to the
game. Got to sacrifice, got to know it's a five year sentence for a
brick of white. That's if your record clean Lord knows it’s a poor
sight.”
Aubrey Drake Graham aka Drake went from 0 to 100 real quick with his
success. He is a Canadian rapper born October 24, 1986. Drake won Best
Rap Song of the 2015 Grammy awards along with many other awards and top
charters. Graham’s lyrics and verses are so well put together that they
are worthy of a collaboration of his best.
“Moment for Life”
Drake's featured lyrics on this Nicki Minaj single could only
escalate the already great song. The rap duo talks about being great in
your own accomplishments and living all the moments of life.
Lyrics: “These other rappers getting bodied and
carried away. F*ck it, me and Nicki nick getting married today. And all
you bitches that be hating. Can catch the bouquet. Ooh, yeah, you a star
in my eyes. You and all them white girls, party of five. Are we
drinking a little more, I could hardly decide. I can't believe we really
made it. I'm partly surprised. I swear, damn, this one for the books.
Man, I swear this shit is as fun as it looks, man. I'm really trying to
make it more than what it is. Cause everybody dies but not everybody
lives.”
"Started From The Bottom"
Although Drake was a star on Nickelodeon's television show, Degrassi,
this song talks about his rise to fame that he couldn't have done
without his day one friends.
Lyrics: “Boys tell stories about the man. Say I
never struggled, wasn't hungry, yeah, I doubt it. I could turn
your boy into the man. There ain't really much I hear that's poppin' off
without us. We just want the credit where it's due. I'm a worry
about me, give a fuck about you. Just as a reminder to myself. I
wear every single chain, even when I'm in the house.”
“Forever”-Drake, Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Eminem
The 2014 single "Forever", featured some of the top names in the
music industry. Lebron James makes a cameo at the beginning of the video
for this song. The concept is about loving the current situation they
are in and wanting this life forever.
Lyrics: “Last name Ever, first name Greatest, like a
sprained ankle, boy I ain't nothing to play with. Started off local but
thanks to all the haters. I know G-5 pilots on a first name basis. In
your city faded off the brown---Nino. She insist she got more class---we
know. Swimming in the money, come and find me--- Nemo.
“Miss Me” ft. Lil Wayne
Drake has never been afraid to express his connection with the
ladies. He and Lil Wayne come together on this song in which Nicki Minaj
is his lady of choice. Drake doesn’t miss the chance, however, to
acknowledge any haters of his music or his style and all that he has
contributed to this genre.
Lyrics: “Yeah bills everywhere,
trill everythin', and Drake just stands for Do Right and Kill
Everything. I love Nicki Minaj, I told her I'd admit it. I hope one day
we get married just to say we f*ckin' did it. And girl I'm f*ckin'
serious I'm with it if you with it. Cause your verses turn me on and
your pants are mighty fitted. Ugh, damn, I think you caught me in a
moment. Like I catch 'em stealin' flows cause I swear I never loaned it.
And life ain't a rehearsal the camera's always rollin'. So come and get
a portion of this money that we be blowin'. Cause it's on”
“Headlines”
Drake uses his lyrical skill in the song about the headlines that he
makes in the media. He has enjoyed the success and fame but also learned
to take the good and the bad of the headlines.
Lyrics: “I might be too strung out
on compliments. Overdosed on confidence. Started not to give a f*ck and
stopped fearing the consequence. Drinking every night because we drink
to my accomplishments. Faded way too long I'm floating in and out of
consciousness. And they sayin' I'm back, I'd agree with that. I just
take my time with all this sh*t, I still believe in that. I had someone
tell me I fell off, ooh I needed that. And they wanna see me pick back
up, well where'd I leave it at. I know I exaggerated things, now I got
it like that.”
Beyoncé was born Beyoncé Giselle Knowles on September 4, 1981
in Houston, TX. starting singing, dancing and doing talent
shows when she was a young child. Since then, Beyoncé was in a girl
group called Destiny's Child and then went on to pursue her solo career.
Beyoncé has parlayed that into a twenty-time Grammy winner with
numerous nominations and recognition. During her solo career, Beyoncé
married rap mogul, Jay Z, becoming Mrs. Carter and they have one child together. Although some
of her lyrics are written by other R&B artists, her performances are what takes her records to a another level.
“Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)”
“Single Ladies” is Beyoncé’s best song yet. This song won three Grammy's in 2010 and it peaked at number one on the Billboard charts. Currently the black and white video of Beyonce and two girls dancing in leotards has gained almost 400 million views on YouTube.com
Lyrics: “I got gloss on my lips, a man on my hips, hold me tighter than my Dereon jeans. Acting up, drink in my cup, I could care less what you think. I need no permission, did I mention, don't pay him any attention. Cause you had your turn and now you gonna learn, what it really feels like to miss me.”
“Drunk In Love” feat. Jay-Z
Beyoncé and her husband Jay Z release the song and 2004 after she
released this brand new album online without anyone even leaking the
news. The video is set on a beachfront as Beyoncé dances in the sand,
hair wet and looking drunk in love. It gives a new take on how crazy
your feelings can be for someone.
Lyrics: “We be all night, and everything alright. No
complaints for my body, so fluorescent under these lights Boy, I'm
drinking, walking in my l'assemblage. I'm rubbing on it, rub-rubbing.”
“Irreplaceable”
This track had all the ladies singing "Irreplaceable" to anybody who
was not treating them right. Beyonce's lyrics are about a man who
decided to cheat on her and keep it a secret. She showed she really
knows her worth and kicks him out. The video is very creative in telling
the story.
Lyrics: “So since I’m not your everything, how about
I'll be nothing. Nothing at all to you. Baby I won't shed a tear for
you, I won't lose a wink of sleep. Cause the truth of the matter is
replacing you is so easy. To the left, to the left.”
"Dangerously In Love"
There’s no mistake that Beyoncé knows how to record great party songs
but she also has great love songs. “Dangerously in Love” represent our
deep feelings of love for the person that she's with. This was Beyoncé’s
first single and self-entitled album since leaving Destiny’s Child.
Lyrics: “Cause I am in love with you. You set me
free. I can't do this thing called life without you here with me. 'Cause
I'm dangerously in love with you. I'll never leave. Just keep lovin'
me, the way I love you loving me.”
“Feeling Myself” feat. Nicki Minaj
Well, the title of this song let's you know it's going to be provocative. The video with Beyoncé and Nikki is up close and personal as if they are best friends, sometimes actually feeling themselves. The current success of the two is a pretty good reason to have this much confidence.
Lyrics: “Changed the game with that digital drop. Know where you was when that digital popped. I stopped the world. Male or female, it make no difference. I stop the world, world stop…carry on. I'm whippin' that work, he diggin' that work. I got it, 36 of that real. Hanky full of that bounce, baby. Come get you some of that bounce, baby.”

“Facemelt’s” video was taken over by model and Rita Ora’s best friend, Cara Delevingne in 2013. Ora exclaims the beat is so hot, it will make your face melt.
